🚨📚 Today is release day for my new book Gender/Fucking: The Pleasures and Politics of Living in a Gendered Body!
Asking what we can learn from sexual arousal, the book takes an incredibly raw and thought-provoking look at community, queerness, fetishization, trauma, and hope.

From the beginning the #disability community told you this was by design. They wanted to get rid of us, we were a burden on services and ableds were fine with that.
